Poor poor delusional people that think the democrats can field someone that can beat President Trump surely not the front runners of Biden, Warren or Sanders.

Biden's full story has not been told yet (closest left over from Obama era)

Trump will win in 2020 less than one year from now:

Quote:

The presidential election will be held on Tuesday, Nov. 3, 2020.

Due to the persistence of the Attorney General of New York Trump will finally be accused of something that he actually did and will have to admit it and absolve the throne to VP Pence in order to get a pardon.

What that is I'm not sure, but the grapevine says it was his charity that he misused money from for personal reasons.

P.S. Meet the sleeper candidate for the democrats out raising Biden even in fund raising

Quote:

Other than Representative Tulsi Gabbard of Hawaii, who’s also 37 and running for president, and Representative Seth Moulton of Massachusetts, who’s continued flirting with a run at 40, Buttigieg is the only candidate in the giant field who’s a veteran, who did a tour in Afghanistan as a Navy lieutenant. He will be the first and only openly gay presidential candidate. He is also one of the few midwesterners looking at the race, and might end up as the only one who actually jumps in. And he could be the only mayor to run for president in 2020.

Buttigieg, a Rhodes Scholar, is clearly a very smart guy, so he knows this is a long shot, or maybe a loooong shot, just as he knows that ending up with the nomination or the White House would obliterate whatever conventional wisdom is left in presidential politics.

Wouldn't those be state charges; unpardonable by Pence. Trump's in big trouble when he steps down, New York especially is out to get him.

I'm no lawyer, but I was thinking the same thing Dowly, plus I heard the House is trying to pass a bill that they can get Trump even when he gets out of office.

But I don't think they plan on Trump winning the 2020 election yet

Bloomberg prepares to throw his hat into the ring. With 77 years, probably not really a heart-wish anymore, but he has correctly understood that with the candidates the Democrats have so far, they hardly have too promising chances to chase the little boy away in one year. Right now, the only one able to put him at risk, is Lil Cesar himself. Bloomberg might not be the name automatically coming to mind when thinking "White House", but c'mon: Warren? Sanders? Biden?

Midnight self-massacre, eh? There seems to be a word for everything.

The author seems to have run the bell a year ago already. It is assumed he is an arch-Republican from the inner circle.

FYI, you can open WaPo links in ingognito/private window mode to bypass the paywall.

NYT and WP have it in for Trump and are not ashamed of it. Garbage.

If Trump did break campaign laws just as Obama did, pay the fine and move on.

Trump is being accused of what Biden actually did! Quid pro qou Joe is as guilty as it gets.

Then stop whining about it and start an investigation.

Trump tried to start one and now the Democrats are impeaching him for it.

Did he do it correctly ? As I see it - He tried to act as a tough private eye

Well that's how the blue press portrays it but according to the transcript he only asked that they cooperate with a DoJ investigation.

Mr Quatro · 11-08-19, 07:42 PM

I just looked and I don't see any GOP presidential debates scheduled or who even, but surely they won't be friendly.

Same as last year perhaps with Romney already lashing out at Trump and Graham sitting on the fence, Rubio was my favorite last year.

Another circus even if Trump doesn't show up which is possible

And that's one of the reasons he's unfit for the job. It's not that I'm against all that he stands for, and good part of it I question, it's because he acts like a spoiled six year old, always! Geez, Bloomberg raises his hand and Trump starts belittling him with his cute playground bully names instead of rising to the challenge like an adult. I have no respect for him and every time he opens his mouth there's less.
